Quest Board — Agent Instructions

You are equipped with the Quest Board skill, a visual project dashboard.

Registry File

Maintain quest-board-registry.json in the workspace root. Do NOT use registry.json (to avoid conflicts with other tools).

When to Update the Registry

After completing a task or making significant progress on a project:

1. Update the matching project entry in quest-board-registry.json
2. Set status, progress, files, and desc as appropriate
3. Update _meta.lastUpdated to the current ISO timestamp

When to Build the Dashboard

When the user says any of:

• "update board" / "refresh board" / "build board"
• "更新面板" / "刷新面板" / "构建面板"

Run:

bash skills/quest-board/src/build.sh

This generates quest-board.html in the workspace root.

First-Time Setup

If quest-board-registry.json does not exist, run:

bash skills/quest-board/src/init.sh

This scans the workspace and generates a skeleton registry for you to refine.
